Benziger Family Winery
Benziger Family Winery is known for its biodynamic farming practices. Spend some time enjoying the gorgeous grounds by taking a stroll around the fountains and lily pad ponds, or better yet, sign up for the vineyard tour. Unlike the usual tour experiences offered by other wineries, Benziger highlights their eco-friendly farming practices with their Biodynamic Vineyard Tram Tour. This 45-minute, tractor-pulled tour through the vines, fermentation facility, and crush pad includes a tasting of their finished product. Reservations are recommended due to the popularity of the tour, which was voted “Best Winery and Best Tour” in the 2015 Sonoma People’s Choice Awards.
